  1. IMPLEMENTING DATA PRIVACY AND DATA SECURITY FOR YOUR EDUCATIONAL ORGANIZATION WITH CPSI, LTD. Learn how you can take the first steps to enforce data privacy and security policies that will grow with your educational organization.

  2. The challenge for educational organizations is to limit the data consumed by third party systems and different user groups within the organization while enforcing data privacy and security rules and regulations. THECHALLENGE

  3. Student data is required for a growing number of cloud hosted web-based apps across the K-12 world. This has cause new challenges and the needs of educational organizations are changing. New Data Privacy and Security Rules Data privacy and security rules surround apps and the data sent over the web are exhaustive and time consuming to manage. DATA DISTRIBUTIONISSUES FACED BY EDUCATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS Data Synchronization Issues Keeping the data synchronized between the source systems, such as the SIS and HR system, while managing security is nearly impossible without software in the middle. Expanding Costs and Time Requirements The number of hours spent by educational organization staff to manage the data by hand adds up. This is cost prohibitive for educational organizations. The Challenge Control of the Data Controlling where and what data fields and records are interchanged is done by manually – typically via data extractions from multiple backend data sources. Security Rules are Left to Interpretation The actual implementation of the data privacy and security rules is left to interpretation by data managers at the individual educational organizations.

  4. DATA DISTRIBUTION ISSUES FACED BY EDUCATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS THE CHALLENGE Respond to Single School or Teachers Needs Often times in districts, a single school or teacher require the use of specific apps that are not used district-wide. Educational organizations need the ability to manage data being sent to these apps. PII Data Management Issues Personally Identifiable Information (PII) enforcement is not managed or controlled because there is no good way to control it. E-Mail Aliases are Needed In order to fully isolate PII data about students there is often a need to use an e-mail alias. This is most often times needed when a teacher is manually registering students into apps that do not require district approval or because the district does not have the capability to respond in a timely manner to the teacher. Data Encryption Issues PII data encryption enforcement needs to happen at rest and in motion, but this is hard to enforce so it is often times neglected. Limiting Data Is Hard Limiting the data set sent outside of the district to the specific classes or students that are needed is difficult to do. Controlling Data Based on Age In many states, data for students who are 13 years old and younger is a legal requirement. Controlling the data based on age is difficult to do. Parents and Guardians Need a Way To Opt-Out Educational organizations need a way to provide parents with the ability to opt-out of sending their child’s information to apps used in their district or school.

  5. CPSI has developed a new solution that allows educational organizations to technically implement their data privacy policies.  With this new solution, educational organizations can finally take control of data movement – both inside and outside of the organization – while keeping a trail  of who has what for auditing purposes. It is called OneUser Data Privacy. OneUser Data Privacy has the following components: Does a functional solution for data privacy and security management exist? A Single Data Layer The OneUser Data Privacy tools come with a single data layer that enforces the defined security rules – regardless of the method of data communication. For data distribution both internally and externally to the educational organization, the he data layer supports SFTP, FTPS, Open REST APIs, SIF xPress APIs, SIF 2.x, SIF 3.x, Ed-Fi API, direct SQL access to views, and file based extractions via web pages. • OneUser OnBoarder • The OneUser OnBoarder provides a web-based interface for educational organizations to request apps to be used that require data from the educational organization. OneUser OnBoarder manages the workflow from registration of the app vendors to the Data Privacy Contract to the data elements required for the approval process. Additionally, OneUser OnBoarder also manages: • The definition of the data that is sent to the app vendor • Assign schools and rosters to apps to ensure that only the data needed is sent • Parents and guardians can opt-out of apps via OneUser OnBoarder so that their childs data is not sent to apps. Once the opt-out is approved by the educational organization, the data for that student is not sent to the app. If the data had already been sent to the app, a delete request is sent automatically to the app vendor. The OneUser notification system notifies users of the events.

  6. The OneUser Data Privacy Management System OneUser DPMS is a tool for educational organizations to implement and enforce data privacy policies as per the legal and ethical requirements for safeguarding student and staff data. Protect Students and Staff from Harm The purpose of OneUser DPMS is to protect students and staff from harm while providing peace of mind for districts and educational organizations. THE ONEUSER DATA PRIVACY MANAGEMENT SYTEM(ONEUSER DPMS) Improve Efficiency with Automation OneUser DPMS improves the efficiency of the educational organization operations team with regards to data collection, the usage of data, and how data is distributed. Advanced Privacy and Security Controls OneUser DPMS provides a secure data layer with advanced privacy and security controls that enable the educational organization to easily manage state, federal, and district level data policies. Control and Secure Data Implement and manage data privacy policies and the start of the educational organizations data governance activities. Educational organizations gain the ability to control, secure, and implement data privacy policies used by all of the app and systems, including third party apps. District Administrators Have Control District administrators can authorize individuals, such as teachers and parents or guardians, to control the access to student data.

  7. FEATURES OF ONEUSER DPMS • Data Security Features • Advanced data encryption of all Personally Identifiable Information (PII) data at rest and in motion • Encryption keys for data at rest are different than encryption keys for data in motion to third party released keys • Data object, record, and field level security control • Advanced security controls on data sets, i.e. limiting the data to a single class. • Ability to identify how and where PII data is stored and used.(Hybrid Systems) • Parent and Guardian Features • Notification to parents and guardians of new app contracts before or after a configurable number of days of first use • Identification of data that is sent to each app • Allow parents or guardians to opt-out and refuse their child’s data to go to a particular app • Posting of any app vendors that use student personal information • Teacher Features • Online access for teachers to screen an app to see if it is already approved or denied for use • Teachers have the ability to request that an app be approved for use by their class students only • Teachers have the ability to create a list of app vendors they use for their own students that use student personal information • Notification of an app vendor and/or application’s approval or denial by district staff • Data Privacy Management Features • Entity registration • Application registration per entity • Data distribution and security by application and data privacy contracts to send to entities • Approve or deny entity and application for use by teachers and staff • Manage the life cycle of the entity and applications within the district • Automate the exclusion of students by age with automated notification of parents and guardians to authorize the student data for use • Notification Features • Delivery and notification of the District Privacy Agreement to the app vendor/entity • Delivery of the district’s available data set to the web service vendor/entity so that the entity can identify the required data fields • Notifications to the district data staff upon completion of the entity’s agreements • Notifications to the teachers/staff upon approval or denial of the entity/application • Notifications to the 3rd party app vendor/entity of approval or denial to data access • Administrator Features • Customize the Privacy Contract between the vendor and the district • Customize the email that is sent to the entity, teachers, and parents • Approve or deny the entity/application for use by district staff

  19. EVALUATING AN APPVENDOR • Evaluate the terms and conditions of educational web sites with respect to student privacy. Specifically, this is to evaluate if the service provider implements and maintains security procedures and practices that meet or exceed industry standards and that are designed to protect student information, records, and student-generated content from unauthorized access, destruction, use, modification, or disclosure. • Determine if the service provider deletes student information, student records, or student generated content within a reasonable amount of time if a student, parent, or legal guardian of a student or local or regional board of education who has the right to control such student information requests the deletion of such student information, student records, or student-generated content. • Determine if the service provider uses student data for non-school purposes, such as: engaging in targeted advertising; collecting, storing, and using data and content or persistent unique identifiers for purposes other than education; selling, renting, or trading student data and content except as part of a merger, sale, or acquisition of the service provider’s business; and disclosing student data and content unless the disclosure is made for educational purposes, to ensure compliance with the law, in response to a judicial order, to protect the safety or integrity of users, to an entity hired by the operator to provide services for the operator’s site, or for a school or other purpose requested by a student, parent, or guardian of a student.
